According to BroadwayWorld.com, King will host a new one-man stage show called “Larry King: Standing Up.”

The award-winning broadcaster “will be giving fans a hilarious and insightful look inside the legend with a series of exclusive, one-night-only performances for audiences across the country,” the site reports.

Starting with his life growing up as a street-smart kid in Brooklyn to tales from his storied career as the greatest interviewer of all time, Larry King’s style and wit will give audiences an evening to remember.

Audiences will also have the extraordinary opportunity to ask their own questions of the broadcast veteran (and now stand up comedian!) in a Q&A with Larry King at each performance.

This unique series of performances will mark King’s first stage appearance since completing his triumphant 25-year run on the award-winning CNN program “Larry King Live.”
